Abstract

Ethics is a discipline which seeks to determine the way in which we should behave in order to lead a fulfilling life. Based on this definition, people tend to think of ethics only in relation to individual actions. The aim of this paper is to create an awareness of good reasons why a business firm should act ethically. By so doing, they make it easier for their individual members to live ethical lives. Hence, they tend to acquire good reputation, win the trust of other parties and foster among their employees an attitude of commitment to the firm's interests: all these can provide sustainable competitive advantages to the firm.
